Stamp-a-Stack Class Part 1

Saturday, 28 April 2012

Hi All

I thought I'd share with you the cards we made at my 'Stamp-a-Stack' class that I held on Thursday evening.

Stamp-a-Stack classes are great fun as we make 10 cards in total: 2 each of 5 different designs, in TWO HOURS!!. The tools and materials for each card are in separate shoeboxes, representing a 'station'. You have 20 minutes per station (actually technically I think it's 24 minutes but I allow for changeover etc) to make your two cards and when the buzzer goes off the 'stations' move round to the next person.

Here is the first one:

When I designed this one I followed the sketch over at the Sketch and Stash Challenge Blog - fab sketch by the way ladies, and so I am going to enter it into their challenge this week. I also have to say what is my new or neglected stash - the Daisy Chain punch is brand new and a welcome addition to my stash. It's a Martha Stewart one and I have them in stock here. and that flower stamp is also a new one from a set called Real Garden Petals by Hero Arts which I have in stock here!

Next card is this one:

I think buttons in the middle of flowers always finish them off nicely and you can pick up a Coffee & Cream pack here. Also that shape the Birthday Wishes is in has been cut with an EK Success punch- another new addition to my stash! (Available here.)

And finally, for Part 1, is this card:

I've used up some old Stampin Up supplies in for this card.

Hope you like them and I'll be back tomorrow with Part 2 - the final two cards
